A very sweet and charming little figurine from Coalport (now part of the Waterford,Wedgwood andRoyal Doulton Group) "Penelope" was designed by Sydney R Sanders not long before he went off toserve King and country in the Great War. She is 6.25 inches tall (16 cms) and was hand-paintedin a very pretty deep pink dress with blue petticoats. She seems to have gathered her wild flowers on thespur of the moment as she has no basket in which to carry them home. A vision of the innocent and beguilingEngland which so many young men gave their lives to protect, she is perfect in every respect.I am very happy to post worldwide.
